Mental health status among non-psychiatric inpatients in a general hospital
Objective To analyze the mental health status of non-psychiatric inpatients in a general hospital， and to explore the relevant influencing factors， so as to provide references for the screening of mental health problems and the construction of intervention models among non-psychiatric inpatients.Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted among 916 non-psychiatric inpatients in a third grade class A general hospital in Guangzhou， and all the inpatients were assessed using Patient Health Questionnaire-9 item （PHQ-9）， Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 item （GAD-7）， Athens Insomnia Scale （AIS） and Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale （C-SSRS） to detect their depression， anxiety， insomnia and suicide risk status. Thereafter， univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to screen the risk factors affecting the mental health of inpatients.Results A total of 339 （37.0%） inpatients with positive mental health problems were screened， and the screening results for each dimension revealed 218 cases （23.8%） of depression， 141 cases （15.4%） of anxiety， 257 cases （28.1%） of insomnia， 42 cases （4.6%） of suicidal ideation and 7 cases （0.8%） of suicidal behavior. Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that female （OR=1.379， P<0.05） was a risk factor for positive screening of mental health problems. Ordinal Logistic regression analysis denoted that age above 60 years old （OR=1.542， P<0.05） and singlehood （OR=2.055， P<0.05） were risk factors affecting the severity of depression， while senior high school to junior college education （OR=0.524， P<0.05） was a protective factor of depression， meantime， female （OR=1.472， P<0.05） was a risk factor affecting the severity of insomnia.Conclusion Mental health problems are quite common among non-psychiatric inpatients in general hospitals， and are mainly affected by factors such as gender， age， marital status and educational background.
